House Republican Lauren Boebert is polling 14 points behind potential Democratic rival Ike McCorkle in a hypothetic matchup for Colorado’s 4th Congressional District according to a survey conducted on behalf of his campaign.
The poll found McCorkle, a former Marine, would get 43 percent of the vote against 27 percent for Boebert—with another 33 percent of voters undecided.
In December 2023, Boebert, a Donald Trump-supporting GOP hardliner who represents Colorado’s 3rd Congressional District in the House, announced she wanted to run for the state’s traditionally more conservative 4th District in a surprise move. Boebert said she made the move seeking a “fresh start” after a “pretty difficult year for me and my family,” but critics argued she was worried about losing to Democrat Adam Frisch—who she narrowly beat by around 500 votes in November 2022.
No, neither candidate has won their primary yet, as the article.makes clear.
The Republican debate was last night. It was a bit of a shitshow, about zero policy talk. Mostly character attacks against Boebert.
